Welcome to owning a lightweight Camry. There really isn't that much out there performance wise. Thats what makes it fun. What I've come to realize, after owning a 99 2.2 5S-FE Camry LE, is that you've got to go custom with most modifications. There isn't a whole lot pre-fab.

That's not a bad thing though. You can make a rare, really interesting car by self-modding.

If you want exhaust, I can possibly set you up with a local guy that does custom exhaust work for performance vehicles.

For intakes, try looking up Camry as well as Celica. Injen makes a great one.

What kind of mods are you looking for?

Im in the same boat. Recently decided i wanted too add some bolt on parts to increase HP to my 1990 celica gts 5s-fe. Especially wanted bolt on since i figured i couldnt mess anything up that way since this is my first project car and first time ive ever done anything extensive like pulling the engine.

So if you got any tips for mods i could do id really appericate it since i havent found much of anything online except for an ebay chip and exhaust.

There just really isn't much out there for the 5sfe, mainly because of it's economy head.

MR2 guys build strokers with the 5sfe block , using the 3sgte head and getting an extra 0.2 of motor.

Does the 3sgte head bolt right on or would i need extra parts?

It bolts up, the only modification would be to drill holes into the water jackets of the 5s block to match the water ports of the 3sgte head.
Then you could go turbo stroker. You use the 5s block and machine the 3s rods to fit the 5s crank.There's more to it, but by using the 3s head, it opens up more possibilties for modding, as there is a huge aftermarket support for the 3sgte.
There's some threads on it in the MR2 section.

As for the exhaust a few header options are available, and there is only one exhaust system out there that I know of, the pacesetter monza, which I've heard mixed reviews of. The monza though is really only from after the resonator back. I'm running a Megan header, to the stock down pipe, after the flexpipe, I have a cat, a glasspack and then custom piping back to an OBX oval muffler.

If you want to go solid mounts, which I really dont recommend for a mostly stock engine, a lot of guys use window weld to fill up the stock mounts. I believe I've seen an after market sway bar out there, and I'm not exactly sure of what you mean by a rear strut kit....

I wouldn't recommend solid engine mounts unless you were pumpimg out uber HP. You won't gain anything from it, in that case.A CAI, Header, freer flowing exhaust , lightened flywheel and pulley set, together would give you some noticeable performance gains.
Personally, I would go turbo stroker if I had a 5sfe.

How much is a turbo stroker build? I was looking at the 3s-gte swap, but I imagine it would be cheaper to just do the head. Especially if I have to replace the head gasket.

Don't know.
It's the opposite for me. I already have a 3sgte, so I would just need the 5s block and internals. I could do it for the price of the 5s block and having the 5s crank rod journals machined to fit the 3s rods.
In your case, you already have the 5s and would need the top 1/2 , some of the internals , the turbo system and ECU from the 3s.
ATS Racing sells the 5sgte longblock for $2200.00-minus the turbo set up.
